A Graduate’s Hemlock Ring

This is my second run through the Hemlock Ring pattern, a vintage pattern, updated in blanket form by Jared Flood. It came out really well. No mistakes in this one, unlike my first attempt. It also came together much more quickly this time, and also wound up blocking a bit larger. I didn’t block it strenuously enough to get the looped edge to lay flat, but I did get the lace to open up.

It’s a gift for my sister as she graduated from law school this past May. I hope she gets many years of use out of it.
